7:37Now PlayingA high school student was arrested hours before their prom by ICE agents. Hannah Cranston, Mark Thompson, and Amberia Allen, the hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“OSSINING, N.Y. - Federal immigration authorities took a 19-year-old high school student into custody hours before his senior prom.
Diego Ismael Puma Macancela, a citizen of Ecuador, was arrested at his cousin's Ossining home Thursday morning, according to Rachael Yong Yow, public affairs officer for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The agency said Puma Macancela is being held at a federal detention center pending deportation. His arrest comes in wake of a deportation order that an immigration judge signed Nov. 16.
His cousin, Gaby Macancela, said a frightened Puma Macancela came to her apartment Wednesday night after his mother's arrest. The following morning, she said they cowered in fear in one of the bedrooms when they heard agents banging on the door of her apartment.
“Wake up. The police are here again," she said Puma Macancela told her. "They’re coming for me.”
Her cousin eventually walked outside and was arrested, she said.
“He’s not a criminal. ... He was just going to school, working. He was trying to make his dreams come true for him, for his family, for us.”
“He’s not a criminal. He didn’t do anything bad to nobody," she said. "He was just going to school, working. He was trying to make his dreams come true for him, for his family, for us. I don’t know why. He’s just a kid.”
